Casarecce, Garofalo – 500g

There’s something deeply satisfying about a pasta shape that looks like it was rolled by hand on a kitchen counter. Garofalo Casarecce evoke the genuine pleasure of homemade pasta — rustic, characterful, and remarkably versatile. The name itself comes from the Italian word for “homemade”, and every piece carries that spirit.

Crafted using bronze drawing, the process produces a curved tip and a rolled, parchment-like shape that holds and absorbs condiments exceptionally well. That distinctive twist isn’t just for looks — it creates pockets and ridges that trap sauce in every bite, making Casarecce one of the most rewarding short pasta shapes to cook with.

Equally at home in traditional Italian first courses and more modern, creative recipes, these are a pasta for every occasion — from a quick weeknight sugo to a vibrant summer pasta salad or a rich slow-cooked meat sauce on a Sunday afternoon.

Why you’ll love it:

• Distinctive twisted, scroll-like shape with a rough bronze-drawn texture
• Exceptional sauce absorption — no condiment left behind
• Versatile enough for both classic and contemporary recipes
• Authentic Garofalo quality at an everyday price

Pairs perfectly with: Sicilian aubergine sauce (pasta alla Norma), nduja and tomato, pesto, roasted vegetables, or a simple cherry tomato and basil.
